Hello,

it was a year full of achievements and events for OpenSER. We had a 
major release in summer (1.1.0), and a continuous increase in features 
set and robustness. What was new in 1.1.0 was summarized in release news:

Since then we went though many milestones. We had the first OpenSER 
summit where we were able to meet many folks from the lists, have nice 
chats and present interesting VoIP solutions based on OpenSER.

A very important statistic is the number of new modules and features 
introduced in current development version after 1.1.0:
- domainpolicy - policies to connect federations
- imc - instant messaging conferencing
- mi_fifo and mi_xmlrpc - FIFO and XMLRPC transports for the new 
management interface (MI)
- perl - embed perl programming in configuration file
- presence - SIMPLE Presence Server implementation
- pua, pua_mi, pua_usrloc - presence user agent client implementations 
for user location records and management interface
- seas - connector to SIP Application Server - WeSIP - Java SIP Servlet 
Application Server (http://www.wesip.eu)
- snmpstats - SNMP (Simple Network Management Interface) interface to 
OpenSER statistics
- sst - SIP session timer support
- xmpp - transparent SIP-XMPP gateway

Documentation and news about all these:

A lot of other significant improvements and addons were included in 
existing code (management interface, fetch database support, postgres, 
usrloc, dialog, enum, acc modules polishing), openser web administrator 
was developed. There is not very long time to the next release, along 
with few pending new features, the next period will  be allocated to 
core components like timers, dns and configuration file flexibility. By 
end of January we should approach a new testing phase.

This year the OpenSER community collaboration exploded, dokuwiki has lot 
of content, many tutorials were submitted, new developers and many 
modules sponsored by  companies, mailing lists and web forum are places 
to get reliable information about OpenSER...

We want to thank to all of you (developers, contributors with patches, 
tools and documentation, testers and OpenSER users) for supporting the 
project. 2006 was a very good year for OpenSER and 2007 looks very 
challenging.

We wish you Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
